WasteStation Compact 

INITIAL OPERATION 
 

1.

 

Switch on the electricity and water supplies. 

 

2.

 

Ensure that a waste bin is in place in the machine outlet area 

(a red light will illuminate if 

the bin is not in place)

 

3.

 

 Press the green 

‘START’

 button, water should flow immediately, if no water flows within 2 > 

3 seconds, press the emergency stop button to stop the machine and check the water supply 
connections and ensure that the water supplies are turned on.  
 

4.

 

With the machine running, inspect the waste and water supply piping for leaks. Use a flow 
meter  to  check  that  the  volume  of  water  flowing  is  correct  –  refer  to  WATER  SUPPLY 
CONNECTION. If adjustments are needed, use a screwdriver to adjust the position of the slot 
on the control screw of the service valve. Maximum flow is with the slot in line with the pipe. 
 

5.

 

Undo the front panel of the machine by releasing the black catch on the front panel. Ensure 
that  the  auger  within  the  dewaterer  (WastePro  II)  is  rotating  in  a  clockwise  direction 
(viewed from top and same direction as the arrow on the motor). Replace the front panel 
ensuring the catch is secured. 

 

6.

 

 Try  a  small  amount  of  food  waste  (see  poster  on  next  page)  to  check  disposal  and 
dewatering are working successfully and that there is no internal obstruction in the waste 
pipe causing a blockage. Also check that a small amount of waste goes into the waste bin. 
 

7.

 

With the machine running unscrew the baffle interlock knob .The machine will switch itself 
off almost immediately. By the time the knob is fully unscrewed and the safety baffle open, 
the rotor in the grinding chamber will have completely stopped. 
When these checks, tests and adjustments are completed, the IMC WasteStation 
Compact is ready for use.
